******************************************
Many times I saw His love;
Many times I felt it.
So many times He called to me,
But I in my sin left it.

Many times I saw His love;
Many times I felt it.
So many times He called to me,
But I in my sin left it.
He tried to give me one more chance;
He prodded me that day.
Until He said, "Well that's enough,
She sees nothing my way."
He prodded me that day.
Until He said, "Well that's enough,
She sees nothing my way."
His caring arms of grace and peace
Took me far away.
To heaven's doors He carried me,
But I wanted to stay.
Took me far away.
To heaven's doors He carried me,
But I wanted to stay.
"Dear Lord, I'm sorry, I was wrong.
These people I've neglected--
Their souls I left for Satan's pow'r,
Unsaved and unprotected.
These people I've neglected--
Their souls I left for Satan's pow'r,
Unsaved and unprotected.
I should've given it my all.
I should've shown them you,
But I was wrong and You were ritght;
I just don't deserve You."
I should've shown them you,
But I was wrong and You were ritght;
I just don't deserve You."
I hung my head in bitter shame,
On me He did depend.
He cared for me, He saved my soul,
But I just failed my Friend.
On me He did depend.
He cared for me, He saved my soul,
But I just failed my Friend.
This I tell you now my friend,
Listen to the Lord.
Your heavenly journey could come now
And you'll miss a reward.
Listen to the Lord.
Your heavenly journey could come now
And you'll miss a reward.
So don't delay to follow Him,
And you will find out why.
You'll find His joy to be more sweet
When you meet Him in the sky.

And you will find out why.
You'll find His joy to be more sweet
When you meet Him in the sky.
